A Splendid Display

Is that of E. NJ. HalIOweIl & Co., in Car
riage hall. Occupying the center, and
running the length of the building, this
firm has decided advantage, which
they have made use of in the arrange
ment of the great number of vehi-
Giles in their exhibit. Among
their special attractions is
a six-seat ROckaway, elegantly
finished; a Victoria Russian sleigh with
the most costly trimmings; road
wagon that weighs but IT'S pounds
finished in gOat-skin and satin that
might be coveted by princess. These
are but few among hundreds which
this firm has on hand.

pany.
By far the largest implement house in
the Northwest is the Mast, Buford &
Burwell company, of st. Paul. A state
ment of their sales for a year would
make a mans eyes bulge. In a build
ing of their own, with 5000 feet of avail
able space, is shown an immense variety
of everything that a horse could be
hitched to, and several hundred others
that would puzzle any one but practi-
cal farmer. In fact, in this building,
everything from windmill to plow-
file may be found. 1t is one of the great
features of the fair, and to describe it
fully would require 100 times this space.

CURIOUS THINGS ON DECK.

Funny Things to be Seen and
Where They are Found.
Several stalks of sugar cane that
| stand up in the air fourteen feet. This
| cane was grown in Dakota north of the
10th parallel and when people look at it
| they say, Jerusalem, that don't seem
| to indicate a bleak and barren waste
where the thermometer is in the habit
| of rooSting on the zero notch twelve
| months in the year."
There is large slipper made of grain
| by some clever artist in the Northern
| Pacific display. In the shoe are children
and the figure of an old lady made OF
cereals. 1t is quaint representation of
! the old woman who lived in shoe and
had SO many children she didn't know
what to do.
High up OH a pedestal in the North
| ern Pacific display, sets clock made of
red cedar. An inscription on the clock
says that for particulars Dan Williams,
| of Bismarck, must be addressed. The
fact is the clock was made by an inmate
of the North Dakota penitentIary. of
which Dan Williams is warden. The
work was done with jackknife, and
taken altogether is a wonderful piece of
work. In the gable of a Swiss cottage
sits the face of clock and the balconies,
piazzas and windows around it form
an artistic combination.
There is squash in the Northern
Pacific display that makes the visitors
open their eyes. 1t Outweighs anything
of the kind that Minnesota has pro-
duced. 1t weighs 1876 pounds, and the
man who raised it modestly says, 1--WE
raised that up in our country, and it
hain't been much of a year for pump
kins, either.'' "a ar-.

THE EVENING DEMOCRAT.

We do not mean to proclaim our own praises, or put forward special pleas for public support. We are satisfied with the appearance our paper presents, for the one; the generous support we have received 1n less than three weeks of existence renders the other almost unnecessary.
 Still, we shall be grateful if this practl- cal testimony should continue to grow with our growth The expenses of daily newspaper are extensive and exigent, re- uuiring immediate money payments for everything; and we but ask that our sub scribers should fulfill the conditions or their contract by payment in advance. To each patron the sum is infnitesimal; to us the aggregate would be of importance and encouragement.
 Subscribers ordering the DEMOCRAT now will become only chargeable for pay ment from the first of January, 1888. We shall endeavor to do our duty for the classes and parties we represent-let these classes and parties give us the correspond- ing duty of support.

WHAT THEY WEASs

White lambs wool trims silver gray suita prettily for young girls and children.
 Flowers are revived for ball dress garnl- tures hut they ar> so mounted as to be di- vested of all stiffness.
 Bleached beaver sets arc worn with light. dressy cloth suits, in pale shades or drao, tan, gray and Gobelin blue.
 Floss dotted tulles, sometimes 1nvolced sssnow dake," are among the latest novelties for holiday ball gowns.
 Dressy bonnets are made of white cloth with Turkish embroidery of gold, the cloth being employed as the soft crown, with dark velvet edging the front.
 The silk called peau de soie, which came into such high favor this winter, IS identical with the old poult de soie, or padusoy, of our grandmothers and great grandmothers.
 An exquisite gown for the bride of silver wedding is composed of silver gray moire arl- tique of high lustre, combined with panels, corsage and paren.ents of black velvet, trimmed with black lace and jet passemen- terie and rain fringes.
 A lovely gown prepared for Christmas party is of old rose peau de soie, bordered and paneled with jewels, topaz and garnets in gold net setting, quarter of a yard deep around the bottom of the skirt, and with the entire waistcoat and guimpe of the same jeweled net.
 The rose leaf ball dress for debutantes is of tulle, with all the draperies of skirt and bodice edged with the tremulous petals of the flower of the V. B. Mary. The whole dress is as light as feather, being mounted on tulle over net and these over fine mua mus lin over light lining silk. T handsome brunette is one made of shot silk, the colors changing from orange to pale lemon and pink. Over this is drapery of amber dotted tulle, looped with agraffes of amber and pink crystal beads, and rain fringes falling over cascade of lace.

THE LATEST IN JEWELS.

Jewelry in autumn leaf tints, produced by gold, silver, platinum, copper, etc., is botE new and startling.
 For mourning jewelry black onyx, black enamel and English crape stone follow the fashions of gayer gems.
 Among the most artistic of holiday gifts are those of silver and stained ivory, etched in continuous pattern.
 Other sprays of enamel in natural colors, bedewed with diamonds, the favorite gar niture for evening toilets.
 In flower pins, a single blossom upon big leaf enameled in the natural color, is the most attractive new fancy.
 Silver rings are seen in quantity upon mems fingers, but whether in imitation of the English exquisite or the plantation negro, deponent saith not.
 Vinaigrettes of gold or silver are now made small enough to fit in the palm beneath the glove-and enriched with the hawthorne pattern in repousse.
 Link sleevebuttons show sometimes Chi nese god at one end, @ bug at the other, or else an old coin, balancing chop stick, or even may be a snake offsetting flower.
 If studs are worn, three is the correct mum ber-and they must be fine, but inconspicu- ous; pearls, small diamonds and rubies all are worn-but plain gold still has the call.

TAKE CARE OF YOUR EARS.

Never put anything into the ear for the relief of toothache.
 Never attempt to apply poultice to the inside of the canal of the ear.
 Never drop anything into the ear unless it has been previously warmed.
 Never use anything but syringe and warm water for clearing the ears from pus.
 Never strike or box childs ear; this has been known to rupture the drum and cause incurable deafness.
 Never wet the hair if you have any tenden- cy to deafness; wear an oiled silk cap when bathing and refrain from diving.
 Never scratch the ears with anything but the finger if they itch. Do not use the head of a pin, hair pins, pencil tips, or anything of that nature.
 Never put milk, fat, or any oily substance into the ear for the relief of pain, for they soon become rancid and tend to incite in- flammation. Simple warm water will answer the purpose better than anything else
 Never be alarmed if living insect enters the ear. Pouring warm water into tha canal will drown it, when it will generally come to the surface and can be easily removed by tho fingers. A few puffs of smoke blown into the ear will stupefy the insect.
 Never meddle with the ear if foreign body, such as bead, button, or seed enters it; leave it absolutely alone, but have a physician attend to it. More damage has been done by injudicious attempts at the ex- traction of a foreign body than could ever come from it's presence in the ear.- Health and Home.

WHILE the streets are crowded with sight-seers and the shops thronged with lib eral purchasers; while markets are visited to find out what our pnrveyors have done for the special supply of the Christmas Din ing Room; while the decorators in flower and festoon are laid under tribute to the Christmas Tree-the Holly and Ivy and the Mistletoe-while everything around and about us, animate and inanimate, tells that Christmas is at our own doors, is anything being done to bring the sense of it's enjoyment and the knowledge of it's approach to the doors of the poor families that have not far to be sought for? More than once we have enforced this Christian duty at these Christmas times The poverty that hides it's head in the dellcacy of the remembrance of happy days" has special claim on the benevo- lence and benefcence of well-to-do com munity; and in the marketings of | tomorrow, in the purchases at gift stores, a little extra expenditure for the sake of the poor would make the old and young of the humble tenement homes all happier. joint of beef or mutton on the poor mans table on Sunday next, would make it look like the Christmas Day of old; and even a doll or other toy for the poor little ones, would find as joy-giving reception as among the most favored children of wealth. Think of it. There is now but one clear day for the charitable thought and action

.CURIOUS THINGS OF LIFE.

A farmer of Saline county, Ills, lost Q calf long time ago, and recently, in drain ing piece of swamp land on his farm, he discovered the animals body lying under water and completely petrifed. This is i'm portant, if true
 Floyd Tufts, of Westn1ore, Vt., is but z years old and weighs only 115 pounds, but he is able to shoulder two bushels of corn with ease, and to lift his grandfather, whose weight is 175 pounds, from the floor without exerting himself.
 A Butte, M. T., man lef5 home the otler day to catch train, but missed it and was greeted by bullet from revolver in the hands of his wife when he returned. She had mistaken him for a burglar. He had a narrow escape, for the bullet passed through his hat.
 Among the uncertain crops the potato crop stands prominent So thinks Minot Steven son, of East Kent, Conn.,, who planted two half-acre lots with potatoes. From one he dug 15O bushels; not one decayed. From the other, which was near by and which had the same care, his crop was fifteen bushels.
